Hancock Church’s Candlelight Garden Concerts presents Fodhla Celtic Trio

Join us for a candlelit evening of music in our beautiful courtyard garden! Fódhla brings both high energy and stellar artistry to the traditional music stage. The trio’s sound is firmly rooted in the traditional Irish melodies and ornamentation that fiddler Ellery Klein and flute player Nicole Rabata honed during years spent abroad in Ireland’s cities Cork, Limerick, and Ennis. Fiddle and flute tunes are superbly supported by guitarist Bethany Waickman, whose inventive, tasteful chords unfold with driving rhythm perfected from years of playing for contradances. All tickets must be purchased in advance as only 35 seats will be sold. In case of inclement weather, the concert will be held indoors.

The Cadleys perform at Harmony on the Green Sat. May 3rd, with singer-songwriter Mel opening

The Cadleys have been entertaining audiences throughout Upstate New York and New England with their powerful mix of traditional bluegrass and “new acoustic” a la Alison Krauss. Many of John’s originals have been recorded by national artists such as Jim Hurst (five-time IBMA guitar player of the year), Missy Raines (five-time IBMA bass player of the year), Grammy-nominated banjo player Tony Trischka, Dede Wyland, Amy Gallatin and Stillwaters, and famed guitarist Richard Kiser. And Lou Reid, with his band Carolina, took John’s song “Time” to the #1 spot on the bluegrass music charts, where it remained for three months and was performed by Lou, Vince Gill, and Ricky Skaggs on The Grand Ol’ Opry! &nbsp; Their music has been captured on six CDs—two with John and The Lost Boys, two John and Cathy duet albums, and two solo projects featuring John’s songwriting. Their live performances bring it all to life with hair-raising harmony singing, virtuoso musicianship, and entertaining audience rapport that leaves them with the feeling that they’ve enjoyed a truly special night of music. &nbsp; Mel is a singer-songwriter steeped with soul and rock ’n roll who is taking the music scene by storm. With vocals reminiscent of Miranda Lambert, Bonnie Raitt, Jewel and Stevie Nicks, Mel frequently receives praise from listeners for her healing voice &amp; poetic lyrical work. All the while, her live performances simultaneously set the scene for letting loose and getting lost in her rock ’n roll spirit. Mel’s internationally-acclaimed collaborations with electronic producers have been likened to the stylings of Alina Baraz, Mazzy Star and Maggie Rogers. &nbsp; Hailing from Newport, Rhode Island, Mel began her professional career performing at venues around her home-cities of Newport, Rhode Island and Boston, MA &amp; has since shared stages with Matt Hartke (Recording Artist &amp; Billboard Top 40 Platinum-Selling Songwriter), Troy Ramey (The Voice Top 12 contestant &amp; Breaking Singer/Songwriter, Apple Music) and more. All the while, she has racked up more than 250K streams on streaming services. With her debut solo EP coming soon, there’s a lot to be on the lookout for with this songstress! Advance reservations are recommended. https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/coffeehousemay3

Harmony on the Green 

Peter Mulvey & Ruth Theodore with Andrew Sue Wing opening,  at Harmony on the Green in Lexington

Peter Mulvey comes to the Harmony stage on March 1, 2025, along with Ruth Theodore . Andrew Sue Wing will be opening the show. Over the past 20 years, Peter Mulvey has pursued a restless, eclectic path as a writer and musician – immersing himself in Tin Pan Alley jazz, modern acoustic, poetry, narrative, and Americana stylings. He has shared the stage with luminaries such as Emmylou Harris, Richard Thompson, Ani DiFranco, Indigo Girls, and Greg Brown. &nbsp;Mulvey began as a self-described “city kid” from Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He traveled to Dublin, Ireland, in 1989, where he learned the trade of the street singer. Returning to the States, he relocated to Boston and began making a living as a subway and street busker, before taking to the road full time. Mulvey has a rare ability to hold an audience’s attention and transport them, using wit, humor, and a subtle but sophisticated melodic and harmonic sensibility to gracefully introduce complex and provocative concepts and characters. Highlights of his recordings include 1995's "Rapture", "The Trouble With Poets" (produced by David Goodrich in 2000), 2004's "Kitchen Radio", the fan favorite "Notes from Elsewhere" (entirely solo versions of his songs), two albums with Sista Strings (2020's live recording "Live at the Cafe Carpe" and 2022's studio album, "Love is the Only Thing") and most recently "More Notes From Elsewhere" in 2024. Joining Peter will be Ruth Theodore, Peter's labelmate on Righteous Babe Records. Ruth is a seasoned British songwriter and producer whose work fascinates audiences with its gripping honesty and distinctive lyricism. A cancer diagnosis and treatment throughout a global pandemic would have floored most human beings but even writing from the chemo chair, Ruth kept on creating and emerged&nbsp;with over two albums worth of new material! Performing over an array of unconventional guitar tunings, and obscure yet cunningly catchy piano, Ruth’s songs of life, death, love, and the human condition are that of a skilled contemporary songwriter. Delivered with effortless unapologetic passion, Theodore’s live performances will take you places, make you laugh and cry and often both at once. Ruth has produced three critically acclaimed records, and following her most recent collaboration with award winning US producer and bassist Todd Sickafoose (Anais Mitchell/Ani Difranco), Ruth is back collaborating as co-producer with Todd on her 2024 release "I am I am". Andrew Sue Wing is a Boston based singer/songwriter and guitarist specializing in funk-rock. Equipped with a strong baritone voice and a unique style of rhythm and lead guitar, he’s able to belt out strong choruses and deliver soulful ballads. His repertoire includes both originals and covers of classics. With influences such as Stevie Wonder, Sam Cooke, John Scofield, and John Mayer, his originals combine blues, rock, funk, and soul. Our building is accessible with an elevator to Clark Hall from the front entrance, and a lift up to the hall from the back parking lot. We have ample free parking, accessible parking spots and accessible single- user bathrooms. Tickets will be available at the door, but advance purchase is strongly recommended. Tickets are $25 or pay what you can available at <a href="https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/coffeehousemarch125">https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/coffeehousemarch125</a>

Kemp Harris Headlines "We Shall Overcome" Coffeehouse Show in Lexington

LEXINGTON--Singer, songwriter, activist, and storyteller Kemp Harris returns to the Harmony on the Green Coffeehouse Series in Lexington for a special show on Saturday, January 25th. The evening, titled "We Shall Overcome: Songs of Hope, Struggle, and Action" will include a wide range of music, focusing on songs that everyone can participate in as we face the next era in our country's story. Proceeds from the show will benefit the LGBT Asylum Task Force in Worcester. "As we enter the time of this next Presidential administration, I felt, and was hearing of, people's needs to come together&nbsp; to find community and express their feelings in song," says Harmony's coordinator Mark Morgan. "We want to create a space and event in which people can support one another, express their hopes and fears, and find solidarity in this fractured time. We also wanted the whole thing to be done for a good cause--a gesture of support for those most vulnerable who will likely be disproportionately adversely affected by the changes to come." LGBT Asylum Task Force supports members of the LGBTQ+ community who have had to flee their home countries, frequently to protect their own lives. The Task Force assists them through the asylum process and in getting work authorization so that they can support themselves. Kemp Harris is a force of nature with a long history of performing, storytelling, and teaching. Kemp honed his powerful, intimate performance style in Cambridge’s coffeehouses, developing into a magnetic frontman who has shared stages with artists such as Koko Taylor, Livingston Taylor, Gil Scott-Heron, Kandace Springs and Taj Mahal. He has composed original music for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and Complexions Contemporary Ballet, established a songwriting residency at Boston’s Wang Theater, and recently delivered a series of master classes at Berklee College of Music on the subject of Artists as Activists, alongside Chad Stokes of the band Dispatch and members of the dance troupe Urban Bush Women. Kemp’s powers of observation, his unique gift for shining a light on the modern world and what it means to be alive, have only deepened over a lifetime devoted to the most basic and profound of pursuits: human connection. Whether he’s in the classroom, on a film set, leading a workshop, or performing on the concert stage, “at the end of the day,” Kemp says, “I’m an old black man telling stories and spreading the love.” The show will take place as part of the Harmony on the Green Coffeehouse Concert Series on Saturday, January 25th at 7:30 p.m. in Clark Hall at Hancock Church, 1912 Massachusetts Ave in downtown Lexington. Tickets are $25, or "pay what you can" and can be purchased at <a href="https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/coffeehousejan25">https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/coffeehousejan25</a>&nbsp; The venue is accessible through an elevator in the front and a stair lift in the rear.

Harmony on the Green hosts Singer/Songwriter Katie Dahl with Micah John opening 

Tickets are now on sale for the next Harmony on the Green Coffeehouse show featuring award winning singer/songwriter Katie Dahl. The show will take place at Clark Hall at Hancock Church in Lexington on Saturday, Nov. 16th at 7:30 p.m.&nbsp; Clear-eyed and tough-minded, songwriter/playwright Katie Dahl is known for her smart songs, wry wit, and wise spirit. A small-town celebrity on the Wisconsin peninsula where her family has lived for 175 years, Katie is also an internationally touring, radio-charting artist who “delivers razor-sharp lyrics with a hearty, soulful voice” (American Songwriter). In live shows that are both courageously honest and devilishly funny, Katie dives deep into questions of land and love, family and body image, grief and joy. “In unsettled times,” says Peter Mulvey, “Katie Dahl brings us a grounded spirit.” Katie’s five albums of original songs showcase her creamy alto, abiding love of the land, and trademark humor, as well as her unflinching vulnerability. Her recent work finds her exploring deeper territory than ever before, from anxiety to body image to the challenges of growing up queer in an evangelical church. Richly steeped in the American songwriting tradition, Katie navigates the muddy waters between the personal, public, and political with tenderness and dexterity. In 2024, Katie was named a Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk Finalist, as well as “Most Wanted to Return” at the Falcon Ridge Folk Festival Emerging Artist Showcase. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel writes, “Katie Dahl . . . combine[s] old-fashioned populism, an abiding love of the land and wickedly smart love songs, all delivered in a rich and expressive alto.” Opening for Katie is Micah John, who appeared as a guest with Antje Duvukot on our series last year and blew us away. Micah&nbsp; is a Boston-based multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, and singer-songwriter. She plays American Roots Music of several types, including Old Time songs and tunes, Bluegrass, Folk, Country, and Americana. As a 3-year-old, Micah saw Jake Armerding play fiddle at Club Passim and was determined that she was going to learn to play the fiddle someday.&nbsp; Micah has competed and placed in several competitions.&nbsp; In 2024, at the virtual Deer Creek Fiddlers Convention Contest, she won the Open Vocal division and won the Open Fiddle division. Locally, at the Lowell Banjo &amp; Fiddle Contest she has placed in Twin Fiddle (1st in 2022 with Lillian Chase, and 1st in 2021 with Rosalie Coleman), in Old Time Fiddle (2nd in 2022, and 3rd in 2021), in Bluegrass Fiddle (1st in 2019), and in the Youth Division (Honorable Mention in 2018, and 2nd in 2017).&nbsp; In 2022, at Clifftop, Micah placed 3rd in Youth Fiddle and in 2023, she placed 3rd again. She also plays guitar, mandolin, and clawhammer banjo. A graduate of Berklee City Music High School Academy, Micah is a first year student at Harvard University this year. Harmony on the Green Coffeehouse Concerts Series is hosted by Hancock Church, 1912 Massachusetts Ave in Lexington. Tickets are $25 or "pay what you can"--all are encouraged to attend. Reservations are strongly recommended. Tickets are available at <a href="http://wwwharmonyonthegreen.org/coffeehouse">wwwharmonyonthegreen.org/coffeehouse</a>.&nbsp; We have free parking in the rear of the church.

Celtic Duo Rakish to open Harmony on the Green's Third Season

Kicking off this Harmony on the Green's third season will be the Celtic duo Rakish, featuring award winning fiddler Maura Shawn Scanlin and guitarist Connor Hearn on Saturday, September 21st at 7:30 p.m. The pair gets their namesake from the traditional Irish tune Rakish Paddy, an origin that aptly suits the duo and their shared background in traditional Irish and Scottish music. Yet “rakish” itself also suggests something strikingly unconventional in its appearance, and Maura and Conor knowingly embrace this wealth of connotation in their music, drawing on the music they grew up with and performing it with their own slant. In a performance that is something more akin to concert music, Rakish explores tunes and songs from Irish and American folk traditions in a way that reflects their shared interest in and love for chamber and improvised music. Maura Shawn, a two-time U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Champion and a winner of the Glenfiddich Fiddle Competition, wields the technical range of an accomplished classical violinist and the deep sensitivity of a traditional musician. Conor, a native to the Irish music communities of Washington, D.C. and Baltimore, MD, makes his home in Boston playing guitar for a number of traditional music acts and bands. Rakish has performed on Front Row Boston, Brian O’Donovan’s 2020 “A Christmas Celtic Sojourn,” the Burren Backroom Series, and they can be heard on broadcasts of GBH’s “A Celtic Sojourn.” They have appeared at esteemed festivals including the Boston Celtic Music Festival, the Bellingham Irish Music Festival, and the Rockport Celtic Music Festival. Opening for Rakish will be Emmy nominated Celtic harpist Jenna Greene, with vocalist Sairys Green. Tickets are a suggested price of $25, with all encouraged to come enjoy the music and "pay what you can!"

Vance Gilbert joins Harmony on the Green in Lexington April 27th to Close Out the Coffeehouse's Second Season

&nbsp;Can something be wry, aching, hysterical, evocative, provocative, fun, beautifully sung, and consummately played all at once? That would be Vance Gilbert. An integral part of the national folk scene, Gilbert’s approach to the acoustic singer-songwriter idiom is significant. Gilbert’s compositions, while frequently employing sophisticated melodies and harmonies that attest to his jazz roots, remain sublime attestations to the storyteller’s craft. Many know Vance’s signature song, “Unfamiliar Moon,” which landed him in the second round of auditions of TV’s America’s Got Talent. Like all great artists, Vance truly happens live. In fact he developed his reputation with his jaw-dropping, diverse, funny, devastating, and gorgeous live performances. Vance exploded onto the scene in the early ’90s, with buzz spreading quickly. Who was this multicultural arts teacher knocking them dead at open mics? After opening Shawn Colvin’s 1992 Fat City tour, he took much of America by storm. “The voice of an angel, the wit of a devil, and the guitar playing of a god,” wrote the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. Vance has released 16 albums, including Somerville (Live), and Side of the Road with Ellis Paul. His latest album, The Mother of Trouble, was released in May.&nbsp; Opening for Vance will be Jerry Ramirez. Jerry has been active in the local (and not so local) music scene for over 4 decades. He is a songwriter, guitarist, and singer steeped in the Americana, Singer/Songwriter, Blues, and Folk traditions. Over the years he has developed a unique synthesis of these art-forms and blended them into a powerful writing style that aims for the heart. Jerry’s vocals, described as “soulful and powerful,” drive home the often poignant messages in his songs. The years of playing have honed his acoustic guitar chops into a distinctive, flat-picking/finger-picking hybrid, all his own. After playing in a variety of Boston/Lowell-based bands, he was the lead singer and guitarist in the Baltimore, Maryland band, Starkey Drive. Jerry worked with the incredible Dana Pomfret in the late 2000’s contributing vocals and guitar to her&nbsp;Float&nbsp;release and her live performances. Having recently worked with producer extraordinaire, Jim Chapdelaine, Jerry is ready to share his music with all who would like to hear it. Reserve your seat now! https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/1755091575843047185257

Sol y Canto  comes to Harmony on the Green in Lexington 

Sol y Canto is an award winning Pan-Latin ensemble led by Puerto Rican/Argentine singer and percussionist Rosi Amador and New Mexican guitarist, singer and composer Brian Amador, known for making their music accessible to Spanish- and non-Spanish speaking audiences of all ages. Nicolás Emden is a multi-instrumentalist, composer, singer and songwriter, originally from Chilean Patagonia. His music navigates the waters of pop, rock, and Latin American folk. Sol y Canto’s original songs are distinguished by poetic, often quirky lyrics set in a framework of varied musical styles with surprising twists. They can make you dance, laugh, cry and sigh all in one concert. Their arrangements of classic and contemporary Latin tunes are always fresh and original. With Brian’s commanding, intricate guitar playing, Rosi’s rhythmic drive on cajón and bongos, and liberal use of vocal improvisation, the duo often sounds like a much larger ensemble. Since 1994, Sol y Canto has brought audiences to their feet from the Kennedy Center to the California World Music Festival, Boston’s Symphony Hall, Puerto Rico’s Museo de Arte and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, as well as countless club shows and house concerts. The Boston Globe hails them as “sublime ambassadors of the Pan-Latin tradition”. Music critic Norman Weinstein of the Christian Science Monitor and Boston Phoenix observes: “Every Sol y Canto album is a demonstration of what the poet Federico García Lorca identified as deep song. Always they evoke the sensual splendor of simply being vitally, vividly alive in a magical and mysterious universe. Brian Amador is a Spanish modernist poet in the guise of a musician…Together, Rosi and Brian Amador create a musical marriage made in heaven.” &nbsp;Nicolás Emden was a former member and founder of the Chilean band “Tejado Pimiento” (2007-2012) with whom he wrote 2 studio albums, "Triciclo" (2007) and "Sensación de verdad" (2010). After that, he published his first solo album named “Como los pájaros” (2014), which included a YouTube documentary series traveling and performing throughout Chile called “Como los pájaros x Chile”. The Chilean artist moved to Boston USA in 2014, where he’s currently based, to complete his music studies at Berklee College of Music. He's also been performing and touring throughout the United States, Canada, and back to Chile. &nbsp;Nicolás Emden started his musical journey at the age of 6, through the learning of folk South American music, singing and playing the acoustic guitar. Since his school years, Nicolás has been part of a wide variety of music projects as a multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, composer/songwriter, and music director and orchestra conductor for professional musical theater shows. He has also written the music for 2 original musical theater shows, based on traditional South American stories and mythology.&nbsp;His newest single,&nbsp;Sin Ti is available for streaming on Spotify and YouTube, among others.&nbsp;&nbsp; Hancock Church has parking on both sides of Massachusetts Avenue in the front of the building, and ample free parking, including ADA accessible spots in our back parking lot. Our front door is accessible and then an elevator is available up to Clark Hall. Our parking lot entrance has a chair lift up to the hall. We have single user bathrooms that are also ADA accessible. More information is available on our website, and ticket reservations can be made at https://hancockchurch.breezechms.com/form/175509157584304718?fbclid=IwAR3eD3d2PbLt8u9eMdnD-a_47orhynjReDrDFFLvxcp0Z6ljzOHIywMhue0

Kemp Harris at Harmony on the Green

Kemp Harris is a composer, musician, author, actor, and teacher. Born in North Carolina, he taught himself piano and was writing songs at age 14. His album, entitled Edenton, looks back to his roots and features The Holmes Brothers. Kemp has shared the stage with Taj Mahal, Gil Scott-Heron, and Koko Taylor. He has written and performed original compositions for the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater and WGBH public television.&nbsp;&nbsp; Adam Osgood is a harp player and spoken word artist who draws his influences from Blues tradition and Beat Poetry. He is comfortable in genres ranging from Folk to Funk and has been playing blues harp since he was 14 years old. Kemp and Adam met on Star Island, NH in 1985 and have been making music together ever since. Their unique blend of piano, vocals and harmonica is a captivating mixture of seasoned blues, folk and roots influences. It never gets old with these two. They’ve been at it for 38 years and it keeps getting better and better. Lydia Harrell will&nbsp;open the show. One of Boston’s musical treasures, her sultry, soulful voice and evocative songwriting have garnered her the attention and respect of the nation’s finest musicians and venues. Jazz and soul is where her heart is; however, Harrell has shown an unbreakable ability to mold herself into any musical situation. Be it performing with the Boston Pops, serenading NBA fans with America’s national anthem, or lending her vocal talents to chart-topping deep house singles by British record label Reel People Music, Harrell’s dedication to extracting the pure essence of song is unmatched.
